The last time we beat the pats in NE w/ Brady starting was 2006 and we had onyl beaten them there twice.

Cincy swept Baltimore in 2009, the banged up Colts were on a long win streak. No more excuses please.

That just shows that division teams match up well with each other. It's not an excuse, it's the facts. That 2009 Bal team that got swept by Cincy gave NE a 33 to 14 butt kicking in NE. I don't believe the Jets could have beaten Bal, had they faced them in round 1 either of the last 2 years.

That 4 game win streak the banged up Colts were on was against the 6-10 Titans, 8-8 Raiders, 8-8 Jaguars, and 6-10 Titans.

Bal wasn't really compeitive w/ Indy in the '09 playoffs and we had a 2nd half lead.

The bottom line is Mia '08 and KC '10 took advantage of some incredibly weak scheds then when they played at home in the playoffs they got thrashed.

they also only lost at NE by 3 and could have won late if not for a typical Manning choke job.

in 2009 the favorite heading into postseason in the AFC was SD, we beat them in SD in the div rd
in 2010 the favorite heading into the postseason in the AFC was NE, we beat them in NE in the div rd

They both lost by double digits. Who cares what the score was at the half.

I don't care how many bad teams SD beat in 09, but they were not nearly as good as the Ravens. NE is a division opponent and we all know how those games can go. It was good that the Jets beat a team that missed 3 FGs by 3 points, and that they beat a division opponent the next year, but they don't even get the chance to play those teams if they faced Bal in round 1.

Hadn't beat NE at NE since 2006, were 2-6 at NE against Brady heading into that game.

so now the excuse is SD msised 3 FGs(even though one was almost 60 yds away), so do we get credit for missing a makebale FG in the '09 title game?

Miami and KC were exposed as frauds, the Jets proved they belonged.

this comment makes no sense. did miami and kc record indicate that they were playing a bit above the actual talent they had? maybe.

however, to say those teams didnt belong is ridiculious. both of those teams finished with double digit wins, something the 09 jets didn't do, despite playing 2 teams at the end of the year that treated the games like they were the 4th preseason game.

by your theory, since a team that loses in the 1st round, especially by not really playing competitive, i guess the the 09 pats didn't deserve to make the playoffs because they followed it up with a beating at the hands of the ravens at home, and the 14-2 pats maybe didn't deserve to make the playoffs either because they looked like crap vs the jets. this is your theory.

The '09 & '10 Pats didn't play creampuff scheds like the '08 phins and '10 Chiefs.

Both earned their spots in the playoffs thanks in alrge part to that creampuff sched and once they played a true playoff team they got smashed.

ok your right, the 2009 jets 100% earned their way into the playoffs, despite playing 2 teams who resembled teams that show up during the 4th preseason game, had no desire to even play the game, nothing to prove, etc, and yet with that only won 9 games the whole year. couldnt even win double digits.

as for the fins and chiefs, they both won double digits, and while they may have had some easy games, at least those teams were playing 1st string guys ''TRYING'' to win. i know your going to say they were dead, but on teams like that, those players still give it their all because they are playing for new contracts, they need to prove themselves, as opposed to the ''DEAD'' teams the jets played who were already in the playoffs, had already had a successful regular season, and nothing to prove until jan.

to say you proved your worth in the playoffs because you won once you got there? well then i suppose the seahawks deserved the playoffs last year, because once they got in, they destroyed the saints. so the 7-9 seahawks by your theory proved their spot.
